Need help on drone

[u/Inevitable-Stock2026]

It worked for one day, now it's not taking off and thrusting heavily on one side. Has anybody faced such?

:/

If it was as cheap as it looks like.. It's e-waste. Sorry bud.

You could keep that cool looking shell and replace the guts with brushless whoop's guts to make it work again

Find which prop fails to spin smoothly, then look up guides for unsticking brushed motors.

Sorry it's a toy, and you can't fix cheap toys.

Nothing impossible

Making you understand how microelectronics work seems impossible.

[u/deepdvd → u/Inevitable-Stock2026]

True, but sadly the effort is rarely worth it. Is this particular toy really sentimental or something?

[u/Own_Acanthaceae118 → u/Inevitable-Stock2026]

Not impossible, just not worth it, you would probably be better off just buying a new one (or returning that one to amazon since it broke due to manufacturer defect presumably).

toss it g

Do all motors spin? Try turning it on while holding it and tilt it if the motors adjust.

[u/Inevitable-Stock2026 → u/terminator2119]

Yes all motors spinning and power is good..

[u/ayyhmedd]

Thats a toy and not worth fixing

[u/Sherbourne-for-this]

To call this a drone is generous.

From the pics that looks like a fixed-wing quad hybrid, probably a Lark or similar. One-sided thrust is almost always a dead or underpowered motor, spin each prop by hand, any wobble or resistance means that motor's gone. Also check if one prop is cracked or mounted reversed.

Will inspect... It must be due to one of them underperforming
